請參考圖1，本發明能源管理系統100設置於一伺服器的主機板上，包括一電源監控模組10、一基板管理控制器（Baseboard Management Controller, BMC）30以及一電源介面40。本發明能源管理系統100與該伺服器的電源供應器80相連，用於對該電源供應器80的能源消耗資訊進行管理。本發明能源管理系統100還與該伺服器的電源開關90相連，用於對該電源開關90進行控制管理。Referring to FIG. 1 , the energy management system 100 of the present invention is disposed on a motherboard of a server, and includes a power monitoring module 10 , a baseboard management controller (BMC) 30 , and a power interface 40 . The energy management system 100 of the present invention is coupled to the power supply 80 of the server for managing energy consumption information of the power supply 80. The energy management system 100 of the present invention is also coupled to the power switch 90 of the server for control management of the power switch 90.
請繼續參考圖1，該BMC 30透過該電源介面40連接於該電源供應器80，用於偵測電源供應器80的電源訊號。該電源監控模組10透過一智慧平臺管理介面 (Intelligent Platform Management Interface，IPMI)與該BMC 30相連，該電源監控模組10透過IPMI接收來自該BMC 偵測到的電源訊號並進行處理。Referring to FIG. 1 , the BMC 30 is connected to the power supply 80 through the power interface 40 for detecting the power signal of the power supply 80 . The power monitoring module 10 is connected to the BMC 30 through an Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI). The power monitoring module 10 receives and processes power signals detected by the BMC through the IPMI.
該BMC 30還與該電源開關90相連，該電源監控模組10用於透過該BMC 30對該電源開關90進行控制管理。The BMC 30 is also connected to the power switch 90. The power monitoring module 10 is configured to control and manage the power switch 90 through the BMC 30.
請參考圖2，該電源監控模組10包括訊號讀取單元11、運算單元12、存儲單元13及命令單元14。該訊號讀取單元11用於讀取來自BMC 30的電源訊號。該運算單元12用於對讀取的電源訊號進行計算進而換算出電源供應器80的能源使用量。該存儲單元13用於持續記錄設定的時間段內電源供應器80的能源使用情況，以制定相應的節能方案。例如收集一個月內同網域內所有伺服器的能耗資料,可以分析出伺服器使用的高峰時段和離峰時段,就可以寫入一個程式讓其於離峰時段指揮部份伺服器進入休眠或關機,待進入離峰時段再行開機。該命令單元14用於透過IPMI傳輸命令給BMC 30，以使其控制電源開關90進行管理模式的切換，如開機、關機、休眠等。Referring to FIG. 2 , the power monitoring module 10 includes a signal reading unit 11 , an operation unit 12 , a storage unit 13 , and a command unit 14 . The signal reading unit 11 is configured to read a power signal from the BMC 30. The operation unit 12 is configured to calculate the read power signal and further convert the energy usage of the power supply 80. The storage unit 13 is configured to continuously record the energy usage of the power supply 80 during the set period of time to formulate a corresponding energy saving scheme. For example, collecting energy consumption data of all servers in the same domain within one month, analyzing the peak hours and off-peak periods used by the server, you can write a program to command some servers to go to sleep during the off-peak period. Or shut down, wait until you enter the peak period and then turn it on. The command unit 14 is configured to transmit commands to the BMC 30 through the IPMI to control the power switch 90 to perform management mode switching, such as power on, power off, hibernation, and the like.
其他實施方式中，該能源管理系統100可設置於複數台伺服器的主機板上，每一能源管理系統100與對應的電源供應器80相連，每一能源管理系統100還與對應的電源開關相連。該等伺服器與一監控主機實現網路相連，該監控主機可根據每一能源管理系統100收集的一段時間內的能源使用量指定相應的節能方案。如：市電價格存在高峰電價，用戶可具體根據各伺服器中電源供應器80的能源消耗資訊利用監控主機控制部分伺服器在高峰電價時段關機或休眠，以節省電費。In other embodiments, the energy management system 100 can be disposed on a plurality of motherboards of the plurality of servers, each energy management system 100 is connected to a corresponding power supply 80, and each energy management system 100 is also connected to a corresponding power switch. . The servers are connected to a monitoring host network, and the monitoring host can specify a corresponding energy saving scheme according to the energy usage amount collected by each energy management system 100 for a period of time. For example, if there is a peak electricity price in the price of the mains, the user can use the monitoring host to control the host to control the host to shut down or sleep during the peak electricity price period according to the energy consumption information of the power supply 80 in each server to save electricity.
